  College

• 1:48
  jersey
• 1:48
  is
• 1:48
  one
• 1:49
  that
• 1:50
  many
• 1:50
  people
• 1:50
  don't
• 1:51
  really
• 1:51
  talk
• 1:51
  about
• 1:51
  because
• 1:52
  players
• 1:52
  only
• 1:53
  wear
• 1:53
  them
• 1:53
  for
• 1:53
  maybe
• 1:54
  a
• 1:54
  year,
• 1:54
  two,
• 1:55
  four
• 1:55
  at
• 1:55
  the
• 1:56
  most,
• 1:56
  and
• 1:56
  it's
• 1:57
  really
• 1:57
  a
• 1:57
  hard
• 1:58
  thing
• 1:58
  to
• 1:58
  get
• 1:58
  a
• 1:58
  finger
• 1:59
  on.
• 1:59
  But
• 1:59
  we
• 2:00
  have
• 2:00
  had
• 2:00
  some
• 2:00
  great
• 2:01
  football
• 2:01
  players.
• 2:02
  The
• 2:02
  VORT
• 2:03
  jersey
• 2:03
  number
• 2:03
  one
• 2:04
  and
• 2:04
  this
• 2:04
  is
• 2:04
  the
• 2:05
  start
• 2:05
  of
• 2:05
  a
• 2:05
  series
• 2:05
  that
• 2:06
  we're
• 2:06
  going
• 2:06
  to
• 2:06
  do
• 2:06
  for
• 2:06
  2026
• 2:07
  here.
• 2:07
  The
• 2:07
  end
• 2:08
  of
• 2:08
  2025,
• 2:08
  right
• 2:08
  in
• 2:09
  2026
• 2:10
  and
• 2:10
  hopefully
• 2:10
  by
• 2:11
  the
• 2:11
  end
• 2:11
  of
• 2:11
  2026
• 2:12
  we've
• 2:12
  covered
• 2:13
  all
• 2:13
  100
• 2:13
  numbers
• 2:15
  one
• 2:15
  through
• 2:16
  double
• 2:16
  zeros
• 2:17
  of
• 2:17
  the
• 2:18
  college
• 2:18

• 2:19
  numbers.
• 2:19
  And

  today's

  episode
• 2:21
  we're
• 2:21
  going
• 2:21
  to
• 2:21
  cover
• 2:21
  jersey
• 2:22
  number
• 2:22
  one.
• 2:23
  So
• 2:23
  I
• 2:23
  think
• 2:24
  probably
• 2:24
  a
• 2:24
  good
• 2:24
  place
• 2:25
  to
• 2:25
  start
• 2:25
  before

• 2:26
  you
• 2:26
  the
• 2:27
  top
• 2:27
  players
• 2:28
  of
• 2:28

• 2:28
  number
• 2:28
  one
• 2:29
  is
• 2:29
  to
• 2:29
  go
• 2:29
  through
• 2:30
  a
• 2:30
  few
• 2:31
  schools
• 2:32
  have
• 2:32
  the
• 2:33
  specialized
• 2:34
  jersey
• 2:34
  number
• 2:35
  one
• 2:35
  to
• 2:35
  be
• 2:36
  a
• 2:36
  special
• 2:36
  player
• 2:37
  that
• 2:37
  they
• 2:37
  have
• 2:37
  on
• 2:38
  their
• 2:38
  roster.
• 2:39
  The
• 2:39
  Temple
• 2:39
  Owls,
• 2:40
  they
• 2:40
  have
• 2:40
  the

  players
• 2:41
  who
• 2:41
  wear
• 2:41
  the
• 2:41
  single
• 2:42
  digit
• 2:42
  jerseys.
• 2:43
  A1
• 2:43
  through
• 2:43
  9
• 2:43
  are
• 2:43
  considered
• 2:44
  by
• 2:44
  their
• 2:44
  coaches
• 2:45
  and
• 2:45
  teammates
• 2:45
  to
• 2:45
  be
• 2:45
  the
• 2:45
  toughest
• 2:46
  and
• 2:46
  hardest
• 2:47
  workers
• 2:47
  on
• 2:47
  a
• 2:48
  team.
• 2:48
  Number
• 2:48
  one
• 2:49
  being

  the
• 2:50
  El
• 2:50

• 2:52
  And

  2014

  one
• 2:59
  has

  been

  reserved

  and

  for

  the

  who

  exhibits

  the

  ethic,

  strong

  and

  serves

  as

  an

  a

  sort
• 3:11
  of
• 3:12
  moving
• 3:12
  target
• 3:12
  number.
• 3:13
  It's
• 3:14
  not
• 3:14
  assigned
• 3:14
  permanently,
• 3:15
  but
• 3:15
  it's
• 3:15
  giving
• 3:15
  out
• 3:15
  on
• 3:15
  a
• 3:15
  weekly
• 3:16
  basis
• 3:17
  to
• 3:17
  the
• 3:17
  player
• 3:17
  who
• 3:17
  best
• 3:18
  exemplifies
• 3:18
  the

  both

  on

  the

• 3:22
  The
• 3:22
  Michigan
• 3:22
  Wolverines
• 3:23
  say
• 3:23
  the
• 3:24
  number
• 3:24
  one
• 3:24
  jersey
• 3:24
  has
• 3:25
  historically
• 3:25
  been

  associated
• 3:26
  with
• 3:26
  the
• 3:26
  elite
• 3:26
  wide
• 3:27
  receivers
• 3:27
  with
• 3:28
  the
• 3:28
  expectation
• 3:29
  that
• 3:29
  player
• 3:29
  will
• 3:30
  perform
• 3:30
  at
• 3:30
  a
• 3:30
  high
• 3:30
  level
• 3:30
  and
• 3:31
  potentially
• 3:31
  contend
• 3:32
  for
• 3:32
  awards
• 3:32
  like
• 3:33
  the
• 3:33
  Belitnikov
• 3:33
  Award
• 3:34
  and
• 3:34
  maybe
• 3:34
  even
• 3:35
  the
• 3:35
  Heisman.
• 3:36
  Florida
• 3:37
  Gators
• 3:37
  also
• 3:38
  look
• 3:38
  in
• 3:38
  value
• 3:39
  number
• 3:39
  one
• 3:40
  in
• 3:40
  the
• 3:40
  jersey.
• 3:41
  It's
• 3:41
  considered
• 3:41
  a
• 3:41
  prestige
• 3:42
  number
• 3:42
  and
• 3:42
  is
• 3:43
  not
• 3:43
  given
• 3:43
  away
• 3:43
  recklessly.
• 3:44
  A
• 3:44
  prestigious
• 3:45
  number
• 3:45
  often
• 3:46
  worn
• 3:46
  by
• 3:46
  the
• 3:46
  playmakers
• 3:47
  of
• 3:47
  the
• 3:48
  Gators.
• 3:49
  Not
• 3:49
  given
• 3:49
  out
• 3:49
  every
• 3:50
  single
• 3:50
  year.
• 3:51
  That's
• 3:51
  a
• 3:51
  big
• 3:52
  important
• 3:52
  thing
• 3:52
  there
• 3:53
  too.
• 3:54
  Now,
• 3:54
  there
• 3:54
  were

  explicitly

  that

  he

  wanted

  the

• 8:45
  two
• 8:46

• 8:47
  receiving

  seasons.
• 8:48
  Those
• 8:49
  are
• 8:49
  all
• 8:49
  some
• 8:49
  great
• 8:50
  candidates.
• 8:50
  They're
• 8:51
  in
• 8:51
  the
• 8:51
  hall
• 8:51
  of
• 8:51
  Fame.
• 8:52
  But.
• 8:52
  But
• 8:52
  we
• 8:52
  have
• 8:52
  another
• 8:53
  player
• 8:53
  that
• 8:53
  the
• 8:54
  WAR
• 8:54
  number
• 8:54
  one
• 8:54
  that
• 8:55
  won
• 8:55
  a
• 8:55
  Heisman
• 8:56
  Trophy
• 8:57
  and
• 8:57
  he's
• 8:57
  the
• 8:57
  only
• 8:58
  player
• 8:58
  in
• 8:59
  Heisman
• 8:59
  trophy
• 9:00
  history
• 9:00
  that
• 9:01
  won
• 9:01
  the
• 9:02
  Heisman
• 9:02
  while
• 9:02
  wearing
• 9:03
  the
• 9:03
  number
• 9:03
  one
• 9:03
  jersey.
• 9:04
  And
• 9:04
  as
• 9:04
  current
• 9:05
  quarterback
• 9:05
  in
• 9:06
  the
• 9:06
  NFL,
• 9:06
  Kyler
• 9:07
  Murray,
• 9:07
  quarterback
• 9:08
  of
• 9:08
  Oklahoma
• 9:08
  in
• 9:09
  2018.
• 9:09
  Murray
• 9:10
  won
• 9:10
  that
• 9:10
  Heisman
• 9:11
  in
• 9:11
  2018
• 9:12
  while
• 9:12
  wearing
• 9:12
  number
• 9:13
  one,
• 9:13
  throwing
• 9:13
  for
• 9:13
  over
• 9:13
  4,
• 9:14
  300
• 9:14
  yards
• 9:14
  and
• 9:14
  accounting
• 9:15
  for
• 9:15
  42
• 9:15
  touchdowns
• 9:17
  that
• 9:17
  season
• 9:18
  to
• 9:18
  lead
• 9:18
  a
• 9:18
  nation.
• 9:19
  Definitely
• 9:20
  big
• 9:20
  numbers
• 9:21
  to
• 9:21
  boost
• 9:21
  it
• 9:22
  up
• 9:22
  there
• 9:22
  to
• 9:23
  do
• 9:23
  that.
• 9:23
  So
• 9:23
  I
• 9:24
  think
• 9:24
  you
• 9:24
  really
• 9:24
  have
• 9:24
  three
• 9:25
  guys
• 9:25
  that
• 9:25
  are
• 9:25
  vying
• 9:26
  for
• 9:27
  the
• 9:27
  the
• 9:27
  best
• 9:27
  ever
• 9:28
  win
• 9:28
  a
• 9:28
  number.
• 9:28
  Anthony
• 9:28
  Carter,
• 9:29
  Larry
• 9:29
  Fitzgerald,
• 9:30
  Ernie
• 9:30
  Nevers.
• 9:31
  Many
• 9:32
  people
• 9:32
  will
• 9:33
  discount
• 9:33
  Ernie
• 9:34
  Nevers,
• 9:34
  but
• 9:34
  I
• 9:34
  think
• 9:34
  his
• 9:35
  importance
• 9:35
  to
• 9:36
  the
• 9:36
  game.
• 9:36
  If
• 9:37
  there
• 9:37
  would
• 9:37
  have
• 9:37
  been
• 9:37
  a
• 9:37
  Heisman
• 9:38
  back
• 9:38
  in
• 9:38
  1925,
• 9:39
  remember
• 9:40
  didn't
• 9:40
  start
• 9:40
  till
• 9:40
  the
• 9:40
  mid
• 9:41
  30s,
• 9:42
  Nevers
• 9:43
  might
• 9:43
  not
• 9:43
  have
• 9:43
  won
• 9:43
  it
• 9:43
  because
• 9:45
  that
• 9:45
  year
• 9:45
  you
• 9:45
  had
• 9:46
  the
• 9:46
  four
• 9:46
  horsemen
• 9:47
  of
• 9:47
  Notre
• 9:47
  Dame.
• 9:47
  So
• 9:48
  you
• 9:48
  have
• 9:48
  those
• 9:48
  four
• 9:48
  guys
• 9:49
  who
• 9:49
  are
• 9:49
  playing
• 9:49
  outstanding
• 9:50
  and
• 9:50
  you
• 9:50
  also
• 9:50
  had
• 9:50
  a
• 9:50
  guy
• 9:50
  by
• 9:50
  the
• 9:50
  name
• 9:51
  of
• 9:51
  Red
• 9:51
  Grange
• 9:51
  that
• 9:52
  was
• 9:52
  playing
• 9:52
  some
• 9:52
  pretty
• 9:53
  good
• 9:53
  football
• 9:53
  for
• 9:53
  Illinois.
• 9:54
  So
• 9:55
  that
• 9:55
  would
• 9:55
  have
• 9:55
  been
• 9:55
  an
• 9:55
  interesting
• 9:56
  Heisman
• 9:57
  vote
• 9:57
  for
• 9:58
  that.
• 9:58
  But
• 9:58
  Nevers
• 9:58
  might
• 9:59
  have
• 9:59
  got
• 9:59
  there
• 10:00
  with
• 10:00
  his
• 10:00
  play,
• 10:01
  but
• 10:01
  that
• 10:01
  late
• 10:01
  season
• 10:02
  injury
• 10:02
  might
• 10:02
  have
• 10:02
  took
• 10:02
  him
• 10:03
  out
• 10:03
  of
• 10:03
  contention.
• 10:04
  But
• 10:05
  it's
• 10:05
  great
• 10:05
  to
• 10:05
  talk
• 10:05
  about,
• 10:06
  great
• 10:06
  to
• 10:06
  look
• 10:06
  at
• 10:07
  and
• 10:07
  honor
• 10:07
  these
• 10:07
  people
• 10:08
  that
• 10:09
  were
• 10:09
  the
• 10:09
  number
• 10:09
  one
• 10:10
  from
• 10:10
  the
• 10:10
  last,
• 10:11
  you
• 10:11
  know,
• 10:11
  over
• 10:11
  100
• 10:12
  years

  of
• 10:13
  wearing
• 10:13
  jerseys
• 10:13
  in
• 10:14
  an
• 10:14
  NCAA.
• 10:15
  So
• 10:15
  have
• 10:16
  I
• 10:16
  missed
• 10:16
  anybody?
• 10:17
  Is
• 10:17
  there
• 10:17
  somebody
• 10:17
  who
• 10:17
  should
